Well that is the most sexist statment I have read all day.

Sorry, but I don't "do" P.C. comments.

There are many traditional men's jobs that pay well enough to support oneself and a family without college, i.e. "bluecollar" work.

"Pinkcollar jobs" are not nearly as renumerative. That's just the truth.

Are you a plumber?

Is your daughter studying to become an electrician? (Spare me the defense of these noble professions.)

What happens if your son wants to be a doctor or an engineer?

My son is a natural at engineerings (both of his parents are engineers).

The bottom lines is that he needs a college degree to be an engineer.

I have daughters also, but I don't want either sex favored because of their gender.

Your last comment was P.C.

Women have more options, beyond college degrees, in this country than men.
